Biosensors I: Cancer and Biotoxin Detection

Thursday, November 20, 2008: 12:30 PM
Room 113-C (Pennsylvania Convention Center)

Description:
Biosensors are finding increasing importance in applications ranging from medical diagnostics to homeland security. This multi-session set will specifically focus on but is not limited to cancer and biotoxin detection, optical methods of detection and implantable sensors for preclinical and clinical applications. Papers on microarrays, fiber optic, SAW or other novel devices are welcome.
